An Apify Actor that provides a Model Context Protocol (MCP) server for querying real-time cryptocurrency data. Look up prices, find trending coins, and search across thousands of tokens -- all powered by CoinGecko's free API with no keys required.

What does it do?

This MCP server gives any MCP client instant access to live crypto market data. It wraps CoinGecko's public API, so there's nothing to configure and no credentials to manage.

With this server you can:

• Get the current price, market cap, and 24-hour change for any coin
• See which coins are trending right now on CoinGecko
• Search for coins by name or symbol to find the right coin ID

Why use it?

• Zero configuration -- no API keys or authentication needed
• Works with any MCP client -- any MCP-compatible tool or IDE integration
• Pay-per-use pricing -- only $0.03 per tool call, no subscription
• Real-time data -- prices and trends are fetched live from CoinGecko
• Hosted on Apify -- no infrastructure to manage

How to use

MCP client setup

Add the following to your MCP client configuration file:

{
"mcpServers":{
"crypto-prices-mcp":{
"type":"url",
"url":"https://nyxar_dev--crypto-prices-mcp.apify.actor/mcp"
}
}
}

Other MCP clients

Point any MCP-compatible client at the endpoint:

The server accepts HTTP POST requests with JSON-RPC payloads as defined by the MCP specification.
